Right, first things first, every one thinks you hit with the rubber end, BUT YOU DONT! You hit with the other end, you hold the rubber end. You just play them as normal sticks aswell :).
You use sticks, but a special pair of snare sticks. You do NOT want to use trap set sticks on a marching snare drum. If it's a trap set snare drum then you can use thinner trap set sticks.

You hit it with sticks and it makes sound.

You can use brushes instead of sticks to make it quieter.

The best beginner drum sticks to use when starting to learn how to play the drums are typically 5A sticks. They are versatile, easy to handle, and commonly recommended for beginners due to their balanced weight and size.

You could, but they are pretty cheap. They are plastic, so a different sound may come out.
Use sticks or brushes for the snare. Sticks for tom-tom, and suspended cymbal. A foot pedal activates the mallet for the bass drum, and another foot pedal activates the high-hat cymbals.
To properly tune a floor tom drum, start by tightening the tension rods evenly around the drum. Use a drum key to adjust the tension until the drum produces a clear and resonant sound. Make sure the tension is consistent across all rods to maintain a balanced tone. Experiment with different tensions to find the desired pitch and tone for the drum.
